Thankful Tree

This year we had a Thankful Tree. We were supposed to write down (on a leaf) something we're thankful for every day and put it on the tree. We didn't get to it every day but it was still fun to see what the kids were thankful for. Some of my favorites were Emily's shoes, she didn't say that, I just thought that was her favorite thing. Austin said God, food, our big family (meaning extended family.) Jake said construction workers, so that they can build houses, food, so we can eat and crayons, pencils and markers, so we can write. Next year we may have to change it up a bit as Austin pointed out that leaves are supposed to fall off the tree at this time of the year, not be put on. hmmmm, what's a mom to do?
